In 2010, following the runaway success of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, the Medal of Honor series was rebooted and brought into a modern-day setting, with gameplay re-tooled to be closer to the style of Modern Warfare. Steven Spielberg served as director and producer of the first title, and the games were primarily developed by DreamWorks Interactive (later renamed EA Los Angeles). MoH is known for a deep level of immersion, achieved by subjecting its design staff to actual military training, akin to the experiences of its inspiration, Saving Private Ryan. Named after the United States' highest military decoration. Medal of Honor is a series of First Person Shooters primarily set in World War II, and is probably the seminal title of this particular genre.
